Edit mode --------- - Left mouse button selects objects. If you click on or near an object, it becomes selected, and all other objects become unselected. If you hold down shift while clicking, the object becomes selected (or unselected if it was already selected), and all other objects remain the same. If you do not click near an object, dragging the mouse causes a selection box to appear. Anything within the selection box when the mouse is released becomes selected. All other masses become unselected, unless the shift key was held down for the initial click. If any of the "Mass, "Elas", "KSpr", "Kdmp", or "Fixed Mass" values is the same for all selected objects, the correspondig gadget in the "S&M Settings" group will be updated. - Middle Mouse button moves objects (*). All selected objects move with the mouse. The masses are frozen in their positions after the initial click. They continue to move relative to the mouse movement until the middle button is released. - Right mouse button throws objects. This acts the same way as moving objects with the middle button, except for the fact that the mouse velocity is transferred to all selected objects when the right mouse button is released. Note: a good way to stop an object from moving is to simply select it and click the right mouse button. Please read the Window Activaton help page concerning middle and right mouse button clicks. ---------------- (*) Users of two button mice may simulate the middle mouse button by pressing the left or right mouse button while holding down any 'alt' key.
